[PATCH] NETFILTER: SCTP conntrack: fix infinite loop (CVE-2006-1527)
[NETFILTER]: SCTP conntrack: fix infinite loop fix infinite loop in the SCTP-netfilter code: check SCTP chunk size to guarantee progress of for_each_sctp_chunk(). (all other uses of for_each_sctp_chunk() are preceded by do_basic_checks(), so this fix should be complete.) Based on patch from Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
